Situation Room Calls For Cancellation Of Kogi Elections by karnafiu03(m): 4:16pm On Nov 17, 2019
The Nigerian Civil Society Situation Room has called for the total cancellation of the elections held in Kogi State on Saturday due to the high level of violence and vote buying.

Governorship election was held across the state while a senatorial rerun election was held in Kogi West district.

The Situation Room, a coalition of prominent civic groups, said the Kogi election represents a major dent to Nigeria’s democracy.

The convener of the situation room, Clement Nwankwo, announced the group’s stance in a press conference in Abuja on Sunday.

According to him, if this election is allowed to stand, 2023 and Ondo State election next year will be a bloodbath.

The Situation Room is one of the accredited observers for the election.

PREMIUM TIMES reported how the Kogi State election was characterised by the late arrival of electoral materials, violence and intimidation of voters. The election was, however, also peaceful and efficient in some other areas.

A total of 24 candidates are taking part in the gubernatorial election. Although the registered voters in the state are 1,646,350, about 1,485,828 (90.2 per cent) have collected their PVCs and are thus eligible to vote in the 21 local governments of the state.

My question is, why didn't they call for cancellation of the elections immediately after the elections but had to wait over 24hrs when the results were collated and being announced.

Some Nigerians just don't feel ashamed cos this says that the election didn't go the way they expected it.

The kind of elections conducted under Buhari's government is a reflection of the government of the day. An illegitimate, fraudulent and despicable government. I watched videos of thugs aided by politicians, carting away electoral materials after shooting and chasing voters away and I couldn't believe my eyes. Our policemen and soldiers were giving cover to these criminals. In some of the videos, the policemen even joined to help to carry ballot boxes. This is the type of elections Buhari with his foul stench of "integrity" is supervising and bequeathing to Nigerians. Such a sad tale.

THis is sad for democracy
Are we moving forward or backward ??
They don’t even care anymore
Honestly APC is not healthy for this country
Policemen tried to intimidate a sitting government, today we buried a citizen killed by thugs and many more.
They don’t even care about the various videos captured on social media.
You can’t hold power forever

Probably they had to wait for the report of there members that went to the field and collation centres....but sincerely this is the worst election that v witnessed in this nation, that Yahaya Bello is evil must he be Governor?
